looking for a daily beater..
Currently I have..
a) TT Sub(BLack) 116613LN - my first Rolex
b) Daytona Ceramic (white) 116500LN
c) AP 15202st Extra Thin

b&c I added last year which I baby them because I am not going to sell them ever. Number A I don't wear it to work because I think its flashy and its not getting enough wrist time and I may or may not sell it in future because its my first Rollie and even my wife is against selling it.
So I have short listed the following models
1)Sub LV (Hulk)
2)Date Sub LN ((black)
3)BLNR (Batman)
I would like to add Sub with date someday but Hulk's hype is getting into me and of course the dial of the hulk is stunning.

You know you want a sub and while the LV is a fantastic watch, it’s not exactly unflashy. Since that is an issue for you I think a black Sub is the way to go. BLNR would work too, it’s not really that flashy I don’t think, but since you know you want a Sub I vote go that way.

Sub is my choice for daily wear, no-date in my case. Works great, flies mostly under the radar.

I'd go BLNR over LVc for you.

3) because you lack a GMT.
Great collection by the way!

I'd go Sub, just for the sake of flying under the radar. If you want a little more splash, I'd go BLNR.

I'd obviously need a higher income before I'd consider making my BLNR a daily beater.

#2 - Black Sub

more of a low key watch compared to the Hulk and the BLNR and you mentioned the TT being too flashy. People will notice the Hulk and BLNR for sure.

Adding a BLNR would give you a really nice, balanced collection.

From your choices, the BLNR. But, if you're looking for a daily beater that's less flashy, I would suggest the Explorer or EXP2.

I think the BLNR is the right answer here.. Cant go wrong with this.

Daily beater, i suggest something with date. Sky-Dweller is working great as hard-core true daily beater here, so maybe add that to your list.

yannis · 7 February 2018, 01:54 AM

I would choose BLNR.

I would have no problem wearing any of your current selection daily (or more accurately rotation). With that being said my BLNR gets the bulk of wear simce I travel on a frequent basis.
